Start of plate meeting
Coach: "Boy am I glad we have you two today. We had (John Q. Public) and (John C. Public) and they just aren't very good anymore."
Partner: "Yeah, the game has passed them by."
I shot Death Rays at my partner, and gave him a big lecture after the game on how it is highly likely that that coach would be saying the same thing about him to the umpires at his next game's plate conference.
